Utorrent keeps crashing everytime

Hey guys,

I have been uTorrent for years without problem until recently. A couple days ago uTorrent would all of a sudden start 'hanging' a minute after I launched the program. This now happens *every time* I try to open uTorrent. Furthermore, after I close uTorrent, most of the time it will say the process is already running even though I have made sure the process has ended through task manager.

I've done some investigating myself and my second problem seems to be a firewall issue, I use the Standard Windows Firewall, but after disabling that just to test the issue it still persists. I've tried installing the beta version of uTorrent - 3.0 build 25252 - but this didn't fix anything. I've tried uninstalling uTorrent and reinstalling the stable version - 2.2.1 - but again, all the problems I am having are reoccurring. Nothing I've done has helped at all.

I get the following information through the event viewer which may be help but I don't really understand it all that well.
